Rls Studio 2c Davao: Your Dream Photoshoot Awaits!
Alright, buckle up, buttercups, 'cause we're diving HEADFIRST into the gloriously messy world of RLS Studio 2c Davao: Your Dream Photoshoot Awaits! This isn't your typical dry-as-a-desert-dust-bunny hotel review. We're going real, people. And let's be honest, who doesn't want a dream photoshoot? (Even if mine's just me, awkwardly posing in front of a slightly-too-enthusiastic palm tree.)
So, the promise is a dream photoshoot. I'm already picturing myself, draped in… well, something fabulous. But first, the hotel. This is where things get interesting.
Accessibility: (The Good, the Could-Be-Better, and the "Hmm…")
Okay, let's get the nitty-gritty out of the way. They say they have facilities for disabled guests. That's a good start, but… I'm a bit wary. "Facilities" is a vague term. Are we talking ramps? Accessible rooms? Specifics, people! I'm hoping they've got it sorted, because inclusivity earns serious style points in my book. Also, accessibility includes the exterior corridor, good for the disabled ones, but not so much for the security. CCTV in common areas and outside property is also nice to know because of the security.
Cleanliness and Safety: (Germaphobe Approved… Maybe?)
Alright, listen up, because we're in a post-pandemic world, and cleanliness is QUEEN. Luckily, RLS Studio seems to be taking it seriously. Anti-viral cleaning products? Check. Daily disinfection in common areas? Double check. Room sanitization between guests? YES! The fact that they offer room sanitization opt-out is a nice, nuanced touch that will keep people from feeling unsafe. They even have professional-grade sanitizing services, so they will be even more cleaner. Plus, the staff is trained in safety protocol, and they have sterilizing machine. That's the kind of commitment that makes a germophobe like myself breathe a tentative sigh of relief. The only downside? I've got to remember to use my hand sanitizer! Plus, they have hand sanitizer and a first aid kit ready. They did well.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: (Food, Glorious Food!)
Okay, this is where my eyes really light up. Let's talk food. RLS Studio seems to be a haven for the hungry. A la carte, a buffet, Asian cuisine, international cuisine, Western cuisine, a snack bar, and even a Vegetarian restaurant… They’re like a culinary chameleon, ready to satisfy any craving. I love their asian and international cuisine. Plus, the bar and poolside bar are nice for chilling out. Also, breakfast will be very diverse: Asian, Buffet, Continental, and Western. Oh, and there's a coffee shop. Cue angels singing. I'm a sucker for a good cup of joe in the morning (or afternoon… or evening…).
But here’s where things get REALLY intriguing: Breakfast in room! And even breakfast takeaway service! Genius! Imagine – rolling out of bed, stumbling into a robe, and having a delicious breakfast appear… basically, living like royalty.
Services and Conveniences: (The Perks of Paradise)
Alright, let’s talk luxury. They've got all the essentials: air conditioning, daily housekeeping, luggage storage, laundry service, a concierge… the works. They also have convenience store, business facilities, currency exchange (yes!), and the all important car park (free of charge). I am not very busy, I will just enjoy their amenities. I will have access to daily housekeeping, luggage storage, concierge, laundry service, airport transfer, and car park (free of charge).
For the Kids: (Family Friendly? Let's Hope!)
Okay, this is where I have to step outside my "single, slightly chaotic adult" bubble. They offer babysitting service and kids meal, which is nice. But "Family/child friendly" is another one of those broad terms. Are we talking playgrounds? Kids' clubs? More details, RLS! More details!
Things to do, Ways to Relax: (Spa Day, Anyone?)
Now we're talking. This is where the "dream photoshoot" bit comes in. Because, let's face it, after I'm done posing and preening, I'm going to need to be pampered. And RLS Studio? They seem to deliver. Fitness center? Gym/fitness? Sauna? Steamroom? Swimming pool? Pool with view? Check, check, check, check, and check!
BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE. A Spa! This is where I truly get excited. Body scrub? Body wrap? Massage? The works! I'm already mentally planning my escape. I think i would like to try their spa, sauna, and massage.
Available in All Rooms: (Comfort is Key!)
Okay, let’s talk about the rooms. This isn’t just a place to sleep; it's a sanctuary. Air conditioning? Praise be. Blackout curtains? SLEEP IS IMPORTANT. Complimentary tea? YES! (Always a win in my book). Hair dryer? Essential. Free Wi-Fi? Double essential! In-room safe box? (Because, you know, fancy photoshoot equipment is expensive!). Private bathroom? Separate shower/bathtub? Slippers? The list goes on and on. They've thought of everything to make you feel like a pampered princess (or prince!).
My Personal Anecdote (Because Let's Get Real)
Okay, I'm now going to get way. I've had some experiences with hotels. Okay, one time, I booked a “charming boutique hotel” that turned out to be a glorified broom closet with a view of… the back alley. The internet was worse than dial-up. The bed was lumpy. The only "spa" was a bathtub, filled with lukewarm water. I swore I'd never be lured in by promises of "rustic charm" again.
So, I’m bringing my own (admittedly, slightly jaded) perspective. The promise of RLS Studio sounds… dare I say… promising.
The Verdict (With a Side of Sass):
RLS Studio 2c Davao? On paper, it's a potential paradise. The commitment to cleanliness, the food options, the spa… it's all screaming "treat yourself!" The rooms sound luxurious. The fact that they included a lot of services made me think about booking them even more.
However, (and there's always a "however," isn't there?) I need to see it to believe it. I want to know more about the accessibility. I want to see photos of the actual rooms (not just the airbrushed ones).
But the potential is there. And the promise of a dream photoshoot… well, that's enough to get me booking, if only to realize that dream!

Luxury Riverfront Apartment in Valledupar, Colombia: Unbelievable Views!
Okay, buckle up buttercup, because this isn't your grandma's travel itinerary. We're going to Davao City, Philippines, with a healthy dose of human-ness thrown in. Expect tangents, opinions, and the occasional existential crisis. Let's call this… "Davao: A Hot Mess Adventure." (And yes, I'm already regretting the title slightly. But we're going with it.)
Pre-Trip Anxiety Phase: Let's Pretend I'm Organized (Spoiler: I'm Not)
Brain Dump: Before we even think about Davao, I need to confess my travel style. I'm a planner, but a terrible one. I intend to meticulously research, but usually I end up frantically googling "best insert activity Davao" the night before. So, this itinerary is more of a suggestion than a rigid schedule. Think of it as a Choose Your Own Adventure, but you're probably going to choose poorly at some point.
Flights & Lodging (The Bare Minimum): Okay, okay. Flights… booked (thank you, price comparison websites!). Hotel… uh… pending. Let's be honest, I'll probably end up booking something the day before, convinced I've stumbled upon some hidden gem. Pray for me.
Day 1: Arrival - Sensory Overload (and a Possible Existential Crisis)
Morning (Davao Airport - Sensory Overload): Arrive at Francisco Bangoy International Airport. Okay, breath in the fragrant, fresh air. I'm sure it's going to be amazing. The heat… the humidity… it's the feeling of being trapped in a giant hug, a very sweaty, slightly clingy hug. Grab a cab. Negotiate the price (I HATE haggling). "Kuya, twenty pesos?" (Yeah, right. I'll lose).
Mid-Morning (Hotel/Airbnb Check-in - The Real Deal): Check in. Pray the room isn't a dungeon. Cross your fingers it has air conditioning that actually works. Probably need, a shower, stat. The travel grime is real, and let's face it, I'm already questioning every life choice that led me here.
Afternoon (Food Glorious Food - Starting with Durian, Obviously): Okay, first things first: Durian. I have to try it. Everyone talks about the smell. I'm mentally preparing for the apocalypse of flavor. Find a stall. Buy a tiny piece. Try not to gag. Report back. (Expect emotional devastation, either way). Then, onto something less… pungent. A proper Davao meal is in order. Where? I have no idea. I will consult the internet. (Pray for good reviews) and hope for the best.
Evening (People's Park and then back to the hotel to relax): After the meal, it's time for a walk around. It will be great to socialize.
Day 2: Island Hopping & Water Woes (and a Dose of Humble Pie)
Morning (Island Hopping to Paradise - Hopefully): Today is the big day – island hopping! This sounds amazing, right? Picturesque beaches, crystal-clear water… I'm already envisioning myself looking effortlessly glamorous in a swimsuit, sipping a cocktail. The reality? Probably sunburn, tangled hair, and a frantic search for a decent bathroom.
Mid-Morning (Sometime on the beach): Okay, let's find our place. I would definitely love to see some of the sights, but the travel will be a struggle.
Afternoon (Back to the hotel/Airbnb): That was a lot! Back to the hotel.
**Evening (Dinner: A Quest for Deliciousness) ** Time to find a restaurant and then relax.
Day 3: The Mountains and Some Much Needed Relaxation
Morning (Eden Nature Park): Head to Eden Nature Park. It's time for a nature fix. But also, a potential battle with my fear of heights depending on the activities they offer. Also: remembering to bring my damn mosquito repellent, which I will inevitably forget.
Afternoon (Relaxation): I don't want to be doing anything except for relaxing.
Evening (Last Davao Meal - Make It Count!) Okay, this is it. One last Davao meal. I want something phenomenal. Something to remember. Something… not durian. I'll do some more research. Pray for a culinary masterpiece.
Day 4: Departure - The End (and Perhaps a New Beginning?)
Morning (Last-Minute Souvenir Hunt (panic)): Pack. Check out. Scramble for last-minute souvenirs. Probably end up buying something completely useless yet oddly compelling.
Afternoon (Airport & Departure): Head to the airport. Reflect on the trip. Did I love it? Hate it? Probably a mix of both. More importantly, did I get back with all my limbs (and sanity) intact? Only time will tell.
Emotional Recap (in the plane): Did I get every sight? Did I stay there? Is there something I should have done?
Food Notes (Because Food is Life):
- Must-Try: Kinilaw, the freshest seafood
- Avoid (Unless You're Brave/Crazy): The aforementioned durian. And perhaps anything that involves a deep fryer past 10 pm. My stomach knows its limits.
- Expectation vs. What it will Actually Be: I'm imaging an exotic taste, but I'm a picky eater.
Possible Pitfalls (Because Let's Be Real):
- Getting Lost: Highly likely. I have a terrible sense of direction.
- Overspending: Also likely. I'm weak against a good market.
- Sunburn: Guaranteed. I'm practically luminous.
- Questioning My Life Choices: Frequent. It's part of the charm.
Overall Vibe: A chaotic, imperfect, but hopefully unforgettable adventure. Wish me luck. And send snacks.
Okay, that's a start. I will now attempt to find the actual hotel and get my bearings. Wish me luck. I'll need it.

RLS Studio 2C Davao: Your Dream Photoshoot...Probably! (A Messy FAQ)
Okay, So... What *IS* RLS Studio 2C Anyway? Is it Legit?
Alright, let's get this straight. RLS Studio 2C in Davao. Yeah, it's real. I mean, I *think* it's real. I actually went there once. Found it on... well, let's just say I was desperate for a decent headshot. It's a photography studio, duh. They do everything from glam shots (think Instagram-ready, which is a *lot* of pressure) to family portraits (imagine the chaos!). And yes, they are *kinda* legit. They take money, they take pictures…see, legitimacy checklist, complete! But hold on, because we ain't done yet.
What Kind of Photoshoots Do They Do? Like, Can I Get a Passport Photo That Doesn't Make Me Look Like a Criminal?
Listen, I had a *moment* with passport photos. Seriously, the last one made me look like I was about to join a heist! RLS? They claim to do it all. Family photos, maternity shoots (prepare for the baby bump pics!), engagement photos (cue the forced grins!), and yes, they do passport photos. Now, I can't *guarantee* you won't look like a wanted fugitive. But they *try*. They use good lighting, and they actually tell you to smile (unlike some places I've been to!). Whether their promise translates into actual magic? That depends on your face, my friend! Mine? Let’s just say I’m working on it.
Is the Studio Clean? Because I'm Slightly Germophobic and I'd Hate Getting a Nasty Rash from a Used Beanbag.
Okay, confession time: I peeked. I *had* to. I'm right there with you on the germophobia. It’s a legitimate fear! So, the answer is… it’s *okay*. It’s not a pristine sterile operating room. There's a general sense of… lived-in-ness. They *do* seem to clean things, or *attempt* to, at least. I didn't see any rogue dust bunnies plotting world domination. The props *looked* reasonably clean. Maybe bring your own sanitizer just in case. You know, for peace of mind. My OCD thanks me!
Oh, and the beanbags? I didn't notice any rashes, but then again, I didn't *sit* on one. Just saying.
Do They Have Good Photographers? I'm Talking REALLY Good... Not Just My Auntie Jean with Her iPhone Good.
Ah, the million-dollar question! Honestly? It depends. They have a few working the place, and the experience can drastically vary based on who you get. Some? Talented, probably, I guess. Others? Well, let's just say I've seen better lighting schemes in my grandma’s living room.
My personal experience? The guy who shot my headshot (let’s call him… “Gary”) was decent. He was polite, knew his way around the camera, and didn't make me feel like I was actively ruining his day with my facial expressions. He had some good ideas... sometimes. Sometimes I felt like he was just *winging it*. The final product? Not bad, but not "cover-of-Vogue" level. But hey, it was far better than my attempt to take one myself! So yeah, do your research. Ask to see portfolios, and if possible, try to get recommendations. Or just cross your fingers and hope for the best.
What's the Pricing Like? Are We Talking "Sell a Kidney" Expensive?
Okay, breathe. Selling a kidney? Probably not. RLS is generally… moderately priced. It's not ridiculously cheap, but it's not going to break the bank unless you go crazy with the packages and add-ons. They have a menu of options, from basic headshots to full-blown, multi-outfit, hair-and-makeup extravaganzas. The more bells and whistles, the higher the price, obviously. Expect to spend a decent chunk of change, especially if you want prints or digital copies of *all* the photos. Check their website or give them a call, because prices change. Always. And seriously, budget a little extra for impulse buys, because those "extra poses" always seem tempting when you think you look fabulous. (Spoiler alert: You usually do... in at least *one* photo.)
How Long Does a Photoshoot *ACTUALLY* Take? Because My Kid Has the Attention Span of a Squirrel.
This is where things get interesting. Prepare for the "it depends" answer! A passport photo? Probably quick. A full family session with energetic children? Buckle up, buttercup. It can take an hour…or three. The longer it takes, the more weary and grumpy the kids (and you) will get.
My experience with Gary (again!) took about an hour, including outfit changes (let's be honest, I stressed about that), and a lot of "adjust the lighting, tilt your head, smile again…" If you're bringing kids, factor in time for meltdowns, bathroom breaks, and the inevitable sugar rush. My advice? Bring bribes. Snacks are your friends. And maybe a whole lot of patience.
What Should I Wear? Because I'm Terrible at Putting Outfits Together.
Okay, this is *crucial*. Wear something you feel *good* in. Something that makes you feel confident, relaxed, and like the best version of you. Avoid super-busy patterns that will distract from your face. Solid colors are usually a safe bet. Layering is a smart move, it offers more versatility. Think about the *purpose* of the photos. If it’s a professional headshot, dress accordingly. If it's a fun family shoot, coordinate without being overly matchy-matchy.
For my headshot, I went with a simple dark blue blazer and a crisp white shirt. Classic. Safe. And it worked. Ultimately, your personality should shine through. Don't be afraid to bring options and ask the photographer for advice. And for the love of all things stylish, iron your clothes! Nothing worse than wrinkles in a photo.
Will They Photoshop Me? Because I'm a Person, Not a Plastic Doll.
Ah, the age-old question of Photoshop! Yes, they *probably* will do some basic touchNomad Hotel Search
